[PW] Visa and the number of the beast

[Wendy Miller]

And,  I should have added, that I realize my previous post doesn't *answer the question*, but in the occasional encounter, it might be possible to broaden the answer a little bit.  I'd hope that showing the patron a few resources on numerology might increase his/her understanding of *meanings* without debunking numerology...

Subject: [PW] Visa and the number of the beast

Dear All,



I have a customer who wants to know if VISA really does spell out 666 in
a combination of Latin, Greek, and a third language.  I have found two
websites that uphold the statement,
http://novusordoseclorum.com/666.words.html and
http://www.thenazareneway.com/666_the_number_of_the_beast.htm.  However,
I have not been able to find anything from a non-religious source that
would either verify or debunk that "A" in Chaldean/Sanskrit/Babylonian
was also used to represent the number 6.  Can anyone help?



Thanks,

Lisa
